I Need You (Meant For Me Book 1)
Page 18
He shook his head. “Luke’s filling in for me on the drums.”
I nodded toward the bed and we walked over to sit. Deklan turned on the bedside lamp and smiled over at me. I took a deep breath and let it out. This was it; I was losing my v-card tonight.
Deklan gave me a half smile as he pulled out a flat, square box from his pocket. I looked at it with surprise. This was not what I was expecting. Why wasn’t he taking off his shirt? I blinked a couple times and then reached out for the box.
It was too big to be rings or earrings, but too small to be a necklace. I wanted to savor this moment where I opened my very first gift from him, but I also wanted to hurry and get it over with so I could kick this private party up a notch or two.
I took a deep breath and opened the lid, and a silver ankle bracelet shone back at me. It was thin, dangly, and had tiny hearts hanging from it. I pulled it from the box and held it up to examine it closely.
“It was hard trying to shop for someone who has just about everything,” Deklan said and smiled. “I saw this at the jewelry store and thought it’d look hot with your heels.”
I looked beyond the bracelet to the boy who gave it to me. “Dek, baby, the only reason I have everything is because I have you.” I handed him the bracelet and he picked up my left leg to put it on. “It’s beautiful.”
“Not as beautiful as you, my Pixie.” His hand skimmed up my leg to my knee, and then back down to my ankle. I shivered and goosebumps rose up at the touch. When he was done he looked up at me, and my breathing hitched as I stared into his smoldering gaze.
Oh yeah, it was so time. And I was so ready for this.
“Deklan,” I said softly and reached out to run my hands over his chest where I could feel his heart pounding. “There’s something else that I want for my birthday.”
His eyes darkened and he slowed his movements on my leg. “What’s that, Emma?” I knew that he knew what it is that I wanted, but he wanted me to say it outright.
“You.” I knew my face turned red at how bluntly I put that, but I couldn’t wait anymore. I felt like I’ve been waiting for this – waiting for him – for so long. The more he touched me, the less nervous I became. His grip on my leg stopped above my knee and squeezed.
“Are you sure, Emma? I can wait.”
I wiggled my heels from my feet and let them clatter to the floor. Deklan smirked and I held back my shy giggle. “I’m sure.”
He didn’t hesitate to reach for my waist and pull me to him, crushing his lips to mine and sweeping his tongue in. I whimpered and fisted his spikey hair, pulling him impossibly closer. His hands ran up and down my sides and then down to cup my butt. I pulled back, reached for the closures on his shirt and undid them as fast as my shaky fingers would let me. Now it was time to take his shirt off.
I couldn’t help but move hastily. I’ve never wanted something so much in my life and it was scary and thrilling at the same time. I pushed the material off his bulky shoulders and he released me to shake it off and then pulled his undershirt off next. I liked that he was as urgent as I was to get this step out of the way.
My hands instantly went to his bare chest, roaming down to his abs, then back up to squeeze his shoulders. I looked down at the hand I had on his sleeve tattoo, tracing the colorful intricate designs with my fingers; mesmerized as usual.
“I love your body,” I told him boldly, looking back up at him. I got to my feet and took a step back, watching as his eyes drifted down to where my hands were slowly inching up my dress. I hesitated when I got just below the bottom of my panties, trying hard not to show my nervousness, but I knew he could sense it. He looked up at me with heat in his eyes, but a soft smile.
“Come here, baby. Let me help you.” His deep, velvety voice rolled through my body, right to the center of me. When I stepped between his legs he moved my hands and replaced them with his, continuing where I’d left off. I never felt so wild and uninhibited as I did when he was near me, touching me. My head fell back as he skimmed the dress over my hips. He paused for a moment, and it was so quiet that I heard his breathing stutter. He resumed, moving the material painfully slow over my chest. His calloused hands felt so amazing on my skin.
“Hands up, baby girl.” I did as he asked, reveling in the gravely way he said that. I closed my eyes as he removed the dress and heard it hit the floor softly. “Damn,” he swore softly and opened my eyes to look back at him. He was taking in my matching white lace lingerie set, and then back up. The way his eyes glittered gave me the boost of confidence I needed and I melted into him, twining my arms around his neck.
“I love you,” I said as I kissed him. I licked the seam of his mouth and was rewarded with his throaty growl before he took over the kiss with a passion that I returned. I was so wrapped up in the intensity that I didn’t feel him moving until I was on my back, Deklan’s large body hovering over me. He pulled away, supporting most of his weight with his forearms.
His lips trailed down my neck to the swell of my breasts that were pushed up from the bra. I shuddered as I fumbled with freeing the button on his jeans, and then the zipper. He bit gently at the top of my left breast, making me moan and I pushed at his jeans. My nipples pressed against the fabric of my bra and I felt my panties dampen even more.
“Deklan, please hurry,” I whispered breathlessly. I felt him everywhere and my body was craving his scorching hot touches.
He chuckled and kicked his jeans the rest of the way off. I hurried and unclasped the front closure of my bra and my breasts sprang free as I removed it the rest of the way. Forget the nervousness, I was so completely ready for this. Deklan groaned.
“Shit, baby, you set me on fire.” He covered both breasts with his rough hands, kneading them gently and running his thumb over my sensitized nipples. I instinctively arched my body up into his hold. My body was his to explore and I was so happy that I’d waited this long for him to share myself with. I loved him completely, with every part of my being.
I cried out in shocked pleasure as he licked my nipple, hardening it even more, before taking it between his lips and sucking. I grabbed two fistfuls of his hair, lifting my hips up to the hardness of his erection. It was such a sensational feeling that had my body wound so tight with wonderful tension.
“Oh God!” I cried out and then whimpered. “Oh wow!”
Cool air whooshed over my pelvic area as he removed my panties, and then heated up when his fingers slid over my thighs to between my legs. He kissed his way across my chest to my other breast, matching my eagerness. He softly ran his fingers over my lower lips, and when he slipped a finger inside me we both hissed in a breath. Holy Jesus! My eyes flew open and Deklan’s face was just a breath away from mine.
“Does that feel good?” he whispered as his finger moved. I nodded vigorously and he pressed his lips to mine. I moaned into his mouth as another one joined that finger. I felt his erection against my leg and moved my hand down to wrap around it. Wow, he felt huge. My dainty hand barely went all the way around. Deklan’s groan was louder this time and his lips moved harder against mine.
His thumb moved upward and then I cried out as he pleasured me. My whole body started to tingle and I felt my toes curl. Within seconds I was at my breaking point. I called out his name as fireworks exploded behind my closed eyes.
His face was blurry as I floated back down from heaven. He pushed back some of my hair from my face and kissed me. “I need you so much,” he whispered and leaned over the bed to fumble with his jeans, pulling out a condom and ripping it open with his teeth. I looked down as he kicked out of his boxers and applied the condom. Holy shit! He was big everywhere!
Now I was scared. I looked up at him and he sensed my panic, just as he always did.
“It’ll hurt this first time, baby, but I promise I’ll be gentle and slow.”
I nodded, believing him. I always knew the first time for any girl was painful. I took a deep breath and let it out before he lowered his head to take my lips with
his. As the heat came back, I pulled him down against me and moaned loudly when I felt the tip of his erection at my entrance. He went as slowly as possible, wincing when I cried out from the pain of becoming truly and completely his. When he was all the way in, he stilled, allowing my body to adjust to him. I looked up into his beautiful eyes that were shining back at me.
“I love you,” he told me hoarsely and then started moving.

Deklan
I lay in the bed with my arms wrapped around the most beautiful girl I’ve ever laid my eyes on. She was nestled in my embrace with her head pillowed on my chest, one of her legs over my hip as she slept. I heard the band playing outside and wondered if Emma would mind that she was missing the rest of her party.
I highly doubt she’d care.
We’d just had an explosive time almost an hour ago and I, for one, couldn’t wait until we did it again. Of course, that was the extremely male part of me thinking. The other protective side of me was worried about how much pain she’d be in tomorrow. She was the first virgin I’d ever slept with – the only girl I’d ever made love to – so I didn’t have much knowledge about it. I did know that there would be blood down there, so on my way to dispense of the condom, I’d grabbed a washcloth and wet it with warm water.
“Let me clean you, baby,” I’d told her as she lay there still panting and glistening with perspiration. She looked absolutely breathtaking. She glanced down at herself and grimaced.
“I can do it,” she said hastily, but I wouldn’t let her shy away. I was the one that had did this to her, so I wanted to help her. The sight of her blood, though, had my chest constricting. I didn’t like that, not one bit. I had to be oh so tender while I’d cleaned her, and then threw out the cloth before joining her back in bed.
She had been a wildcat, just like I knew she’d be. She had always had that feistiness in her that never failed to turn me on. I could just imagine the things we’d be able to do now that we’d gotten her first time out of the way.
I loved this girl to the tips of my spikey hair down to the soles of my boots. Our fight earlier, as short as it had been, had torn me up inside. I’d gone way over the line with what I’d compared her to and I regretted saying something so vulgar to her. I was surprised that she’d forgiven me, but I was also grateful that she’d looked passed that. I would definitely never do anything that stupid again, not to my pixie.
“Baby,” Emma grumbled sleepily and then yawned. “What’s got you so distracted?”
“Just thinking about how lucky I am to have you.” I looked down at her groggy eyes and kissed her forehead. “I love you, Pixie.”
“Hmm, ditto.”
“You know, the party won’t be over for a couple hours. You wanna go back down?”
She sighed and looked up at me with those soulful eyes. “We could, if you want.” Her soft fingers danced on my chest, down to my abs. My stomach clenched and my heart started to pick up. “Or, we can stay up here and continue our own party.”
She was really becoming a pro at that damn seductress voice. I liked knowing that she would only be like this with me. When her hand moved down to my growing erection, I hissed in a sharp breath and rolled her over to her back.
“You are getting way too bold, woman.” I nuzzled her neck, inhaling the smell of apples and Emma.
“Did you just growl?” she asked and giggled when I bit below her ear. I didn’t answer as I trailed kisses down the column of her neck to the valley of her breasts. I kissed first the left breast then the right before leveling back up and looking down into her hungry eyes.
“Are you sore?” I asked and she squirmed around a bit below me, sending a jolt right below the belt. I had to stifle the groan.
She grimaced, but tried to play it cool. “A little, but I’m sure it’s fine.”
I shook my head and ran a hand through her silky hair. “No, sweetheart, it won’t be fine. You’ll be in a lot of pain tomorrow if we push it, and I’m not risking that.”
“But Dekky,” she whined and tried pulling me back down.
“Nu uh, babe.” I looked down past her soft stomach and ran a finger through her folds, smiling at the whimper that came from Emma. “But I’m sure I can think of another way to satisfy my baby.” Her vigorous head nod made me chuckle and I skimmed my lips below her boobs.
God, her body was a masterpiece. I wanted to cherish it and savor every touch of it, but at the same time I wanted to devour it and ravish inch after inch. I kissed my way down her abdomen, gripping her thighs lightly and spreading them further apart as I made my way lower.
“Deklan, what are you -” She cut off when I kissed her center, and she cried out. “Oh God!”
I hummed and continued pleasuring my girl.

Emma
I was fixing my brown and pink pleated skirt when my mom walked in the room. She was wearing a black pencil skirt with a lavender silk blouse, and black heels. Her blonde hair was swung over her slender shoulder. The confidence she exuded when she walked into a room still astounded me. She was poised and elegant, and someone I looked up to a lot.
She came up beside me and looked at my reflection in the mirror.
“Have I told you how absolutely beautiful you are, darling girl?”
I smiled at the compliment and ran my hands down my thin tight, long-sleeved pink sweater. “You tell me all the time, mom.” I blushed and went to sit on my bed so I could put on my brown, leather ankle boots. “Deklan tells me just about every day, too.”
Mom sighed and sat next to me on the bed. “Honey, we think it’s wonderful that you found someone that treats you as good as Deklan does. Your dad may be in a little tiff for a little bit, but he’ll get over it.” I nodded and zipped up the first boot. “I think we should talk about how intimate you guys have become.”
My hand slipped from the zipper and I gaped at my mother, who was looking at me completely serious. “What?”
“Darling, I was young and in love as well. I know what a glowing face on a girl means after she’s spent the night with a boy.”
I felt my face heat and I went back to putting on my other boot. “Mother, please don’t.”
She rubbed my back and sighed again. “I just want you to be careful. I had your sister while I was in college, and she was pregnant with TJ a little after she graduated.”
I groaned and stood up. “Moooom, please!”
This time she chuckled. “Okay, fine. I see that you get the point.” She came to stand in front of me before I could reach for my lip gloss. She smiled warmly down at me and ran her hand through the ends of my hair, which was in a braid and tied to the side of my head with a pink headband holding back some of my bangs. “It took me a while to accept that my girls were so grown up, but I see now and I’m glad you’ve found love, Sweetheart.”
I nodded and pulled her in for a tight hug, which she returned. “I know, mom. I love you.”
“I love you, too, Princess.”
She left me to finish the rest of my makeup and I was just putting the finishing touch on my mascara when the buzzer from the monitor by my door went off, and Jay’s voice came through.
“Emma, Deklan just arrived.” I ran to the monitor and pressed the TALK button.
“Okay, I’ll be right down!”
I grabbed my book bag and purse and left the room with Nitro and Rocket trailing behind me. Deklan was waiting by the front door and the dogs went to greet him. I took in his light blue jeans and unbuttoned black top over a Black Sabbath t-shirt that stretched over his muscles. Just remembering the way his hard body had felt on top of mine made me shiver. All I thought of anymore was how I would get to feel him against me again. Gosh, he made my heart skip a beat or two, or fifty.
“Hey you,” I said when I reached him. He bent and kissed me.
“Hey baby, you ready to go?”
I nodded and waved to the dogs before walking with him out to the car.

r Saturday night things were different between us, but in a good way. I’d never felt closer to anybody in my life. Deklan had found his own special spot inside my heart and I’d cherish that for as long as possible.
I’d spent my Sunday morning with the group as we cleaned the place. Reggie and Jeff had, of course, gotten as many shots in as they could that morning. Both Deklan and I had taken the jokes in stride, but I saw the cute flush on Deklan’s face and it made me laugh. He acted like he was the one to lose his virginity, and not me.
Everybody was hanging around Reggie’s truck when we got to the school. Deklan kissed my temple before heading toward the guys. I walked over to where the girls were, off to the side.
“Hey girl,” Bianca said when I got there.
“Hey.” I looked around and frowned. “Where’s Luke?”
“He’s on the run, probably,” Bianca said with a chuckle. Aria rolled her eyes and tossed her black hair over her shoulder in true Aria form.
“That puta de mierda won’t take the hint.” I laughed when she’d said ‘fucking bitch’, because I knew just who they were talking about. Amanda Cornwell, most definitely. She had been trying her hardest to get his attention since that night he’d saved her from drowning. He never led her to believe they had a chance, but the girl had a serious obsession.
“Poor girl,” I said with a shake of my head. “No girl has caught his eye before, I don’t know what makes her think that’ll change.”
They both agreed and I spotted Rosie. She was standing quietly next to Liam as he chatted with Reggie, Zane, and Deklan; Liam’s arm possessively over her shoulders. I waved her over when she looked at me. She turned to Liam and said something to him, meeting him halfway for a kiss that shocked me a little. It was the first time they’d ever kissed in front of us.
Rosie’s cheeks turned pink and she walked over. I looked over at Aria and Bianca’s surprised faces and smiled.
“Finally!” I enthused and giggled when Rosie turned even redder.
“When did you guys start dating?” Aria asked.
She shrugged and ducked her head. “Yesterday.”
